Durham / Re: Inquest February 1881
« on: Thursday 05 March 26 17:23 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks ShaunJ that agrees the Death Cert and helps
Thanks Everyone for your Input
My Sister in Law had her Ancestor go to Ohio in 1866 as a Miner from Easington
On the 1870 Ohio Census with Wife and 3 Children all born Durham
Then in 1872 her Granddad John Thomas Tate was born in Ohio
 Yes Milliepede - The Next Information shows Jane Tait on Durham 1881 Census as a Widow with her 4 Children
It was thought John Snr died in a Mine Disaster but we dont know if it was in Ohio and the Widow and Family came back to Easington
I found this February 1881 Death and assumed it could be him but the Information doesnt really clarify if it is him.

Durham / Inquest February 1881

I have a Death of a John Tate who Died at a Pit in Easington on 11 February 1881 and an Inquest on 12th February 1881
But the Death Certificate doesnt give his Home address or whether he was Married and had a Widow Jane
so we cant be sure it is him.
Can anyone find a Newspaper Article that week that gives more information ?

When the WW1 Medals were issued on 18 February 1921 John D Lyons was Only awarded the British War Medal
and No Victory Medal
as it was assumed India was not a Theatre of War
so his Service in the 1st South Lancashire Regt in India didn't qualify. He was awarded the 1919 Afghan Medal however
In 1923 it appears alot of his Mates in the 1st SLR applied for their Victory Medal for their Action in Theatre of War 6g in Spring 1918 against the Tribes - and they were subsequently issued 9 July 1923
John was awarded his 8 January 1924

He was Born 26 July 1898 as One of Eight to Robert Lyons and Sarah Jane Wareing
He was probably Conscripted 1916 but more like to get in a Local Regt he enlisted in 1915 by lying about his age.
He probably went to India in early 1919 and if he came home late 1920 or early 1921 then his Army Records wouldnt have been sent to Arnside Street Repository Storeroom in 1920 with other Ex Soldiers
More likely similar to my Granddad who were still in the Army after 1920 and so their Records went after 1920 to the Army New Storeroom that was never Blitzed and they were held by the MOD now National Archives awaiting descendants to apply for them now.
ALAMO2008, I'm grateful for your help. So you think it's worthwhile trying NA for anything they may have?

Yes - its highly unlikely his Records went to the Old Storeroom in early 1920

Do you know where he was on 1921 Census ?
Hi, he's single and at home in Hough Green ,Widnes. He married the following year.

Yes I only just found out after asking that he married Mary Ellen Pilkington in September Quarter 1922 but couldnt find his 1921 Census
